Elton John Gave David Furnish a Lock of His Baby Hair

Elton John’s partner David Furnish wears a lock of the star’s baby hair for luck.

Furnish, 46, says he keeps the strand in a locket with a picture of the Rocket Man singer as an infant and wears it only on important occasions.

He said, “I have around my neck a little tiny locket and it has a lock of Elton’s baby hair and a picture of him as a baby. I wear it for important occasions — when I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and on airplanes.

“It’s a talisman that makes me feel protected, like I’ve got him with me all the time.”

David also told how the flamboyant singer, 61, takes hundreds of frames for his trademark glasses with him wherever he goes and uses Furnish as a fashion adviser.

He added, “He asks me to help him get dressed and pick out which ties and shirts match but he has his own sense of style much more exuberant than mine.

“I don’t know another man who can wear color like Elton.”
